The Christmas Pearl
By Dorothea Benton Frank
Released November 1, 2007
Theodora is the matriarch of a family that has grown into a bunch of truculent knuckleheads. While she's finally gotten them all together in South Carolina to celebrate, this Christmas looks nothing like the extravagant, homey holidays of her childhood.
What happened to the days when Christmas meant tables groaning with home-cooked goodies, over-the-top decorations, and long chats in front of the fire with Pearl, her grandmother's beloved housekeeper and closest confidante?
Luckily for Theodora, a special someone who heard her plea for help arrives, with pockets full of enough Gullah magic and common sense to make Theodora's Christmas the love-filled miracle it's meant to be.
Giveaway: Through out the year I found holiday stories in used-book stores, library sales, yard sales and goodwill places to save to read when the season started. Now it’s the season of giving so I am giving away the copy I found. So it is USED but in good condition. If you want to enter to win I will announce winners after 25 Days of Christmas are over.
